Hello Everyone,

I'm new to OpenFOAM and writing my seminar work about linear solvers in OpenFOAM. I tried to find out, when to use which solver (PCB, PBiCG, GAMG, smoothSolver) but did not find any information about this.

The other part where im struggeling is which numerical method is implemented in OpenFOAM. I do know the numerical stuff, but since I'm not a programmer I can't read the c++-files to find out which one it is. PCG is pretty clear, but the rest I'm really not sure about.

If anyone knows the solution to my problems I would appreciate if he/she would help me out. If there is literature or links, I'm happy to look at them.

Thanks for help in advance

Greetings
Jasmin
